Chapter 1403 The old man’s thoughts
Namu Laoke died unjustly.
Who among them doesn't know that every work in Gumuxuan is the brainchild of Mulao himself.
Gumuxuan also accepts special customization.
Mu Lao is a real master of wood carving.
Although I always say that I am still some distance away from a true wood carving master, in their view, Mu Lao is an out-and-out wood carving master.
No matter from a technical point of view, or from an artistic point of view.
Mu Lao deserves it.
Maybe they are unprofessional.
However, anyone who has seen the scene when the old man was carving... will have this idea invariably-
The old man's sincerity towards wood carvings alone is enough to make people admire him.
……
"This little week..."
Some people sighed and shook their heads.
"Who is it?"
Some people were angry, "Is there anyone so deceptive?"
"I wonder if Mr. Zhou knows about this?"
Some people also raised doubts.
……
There were whispers all around, but Mu Lao didn't pay attention.
Before he stepped into the antique store, Mr. Zhou, who was attracted by the movement at the door, came up to him, "Old Momu, Aying, why do you have time to come to my place?"
Mu Lao opened Gumuxuan. There was no one in the store, just two old people looking after him.
Except when the store is closed, the two elders rarely go out of the store.
Especially when the two of them came out together.
Elder Zhou's heart moved, and he raised his eyes past the two elders in front of him, and glanced around at the people who seemed to be gathering around him. He had some suspicions in his mind.
He looked at Old Mu and his wife again, frowning slightly, "Old Mu, Aying, has something happened?"
"Let's talk after we go in."
Along the way, Mu Lao's mind also regained some composure.
Moreover, it is not known whether Mr. Zhou knows what his son has done. Mr. Mu has no habit of expressing his anger.
"Ah, oh."
Although Mr. Zhou was puzzled, he nodded quickly, "Then come in."
……
The old lady closed the shop door behind her.
The light in the room suddenly dimmed a bit.
Mr. Zhou was stunned and looked at the closed store door, but didn't say anything.
I didn’t ask the old lady why she closed the door.
The solemn expressions on the faces of Mr. Mu and his wife were obvious.
He thought, maybe something big happened?
But what big thing do you want to tell him?
Mr. Zhou was confused.
Could it be...that this big thing has something to do with him?
……
"Sit."
Mr. Zhou motioned to the two elders to sit down, picked up the teapot and poured two cups of tea.
"Drink tea."
He pushed the teacup in front of the two elders and said, "You guys came just in time."
"This water has just been boiled."
Mu Lao had no intention of drinking tea.
There is no roundabout plan.
He was a straightforward person.
"Old Zhou, do you know what your son did?"
Mu Lao got straight to the point.
After knowing that, he was in a bad mood, or rather, bad.
The words that came out of his mouth had a somewhat hard taste.
……
"Zhouzhou?"
The old man was surprised.
Zhouzhou is Xiaozhou’s nickname.
Because both Zhou and his wife were named Zhou, they gave their son such a nickname.
However, due to my own resistance, now almost only Mr. and Mrs. Zhou call me Xiao Zhou that way.
"What happened to him?"
"What did he do?"
Mr. Zhou's expression also became solemn.
He guessed wrong just now.
Isn't this matter related to him, but to his son?
He couldn't help but treat his son's affairs with caution.
……
"You really don't know?"
There was a bit of sharpness in Mu Lao's eyes.
Mr. Zhou did not evade, "I really don't know."
"Stop playing tricks."
"What happened to Zhou Zhou?"
"What did he do?" "During this time..."
Mr. Zhou fell into thinking, "There is no problem..."
……
"He bought a new car."
Mu Lao's inexplicable words made Zhou Lao look confused.
Mr. Zhou nodded hesitantly, "Yes, Zhou Zhou bought a new car a few days ago."
"...What's wrong?"
Is it difficult for his son to buy a new car? Is there any problem?
"Did you give him the money to buy the car?"
Mu Lao did not answer Zhou Lao's question, but continued to ask.
"No,"
Mr. Zhou shook his head, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but curl up a little, "The kid bought this with the money he earned from picking up things."
There was quite a bit of pride in his words.
"Heh."
Mu Lao couldn't help but sneered, "The money earned from picking up leaks..."
"He told you that?"
"Yeah."
"Is something wrong?"
The smile on Mr. Zhou's face disappeared, "Old Wood, don't be so evil."
"What on earth do you want to say?"
"What do I want to say?"
There was a hint of anger in Mu Lao's eyebrows, "What I want to say is where did your son get the money to buy the car!"
"He..."
Mu Lao controlled his emotions and narrated the whole incident to Zhou Lao in detail.
From the previous conversation, he could tell that Mr. Zhou had no idea what his son had done.
Even Mr. Zhou was deceived by his own son.
Money earned from picking up leaks?
What a good statement!
……
The more Mr. Zhou heard this, the uglier his face became, and there was still some disbelief in his eyebrows, "Really, really?"
"Could there be a mistake?"
"That kid Zhou Zhou wouldn't do such a thing."
"He told us that he earned the money by picking things up."
"He can't lie"
Mr. Zhou murmured in a low voice.
The hands on the table could not help but clenched into fists.
That kid.
"Whether it is true or not, you will know after calling Xiao Zhou and asking."
Seeing Mr. Zhou's appearance, Mr. Mu couldn't bear it.
But Xiao Zhou's behavior really stepped on his bottom line.
He won't back down.
"I also hope it's not true."
"Xiao Zhou is a kid I watched grow up."
"He shouldn't be like this"
Mu Lao paused and did not say the word, "Child of."
"If I made a mistake, I will apologize."
"But-"
Mu Lao said, "If Xiao Zhou really did this"
"I have only one request."
"He went to get the wood carving back."
"I want my wood carving back."
"I will change a gift to give to Xiao Zhou."
“But it won’t be the wood carvings made by me.”
"Oh."
Mr. Zhou responded blankly, then with a wry smile on his face, "I want the wood carving back."
This is not easy to do.
I went to the door in person and explained to people that what I sold to them was not a Qing Dynasty wood carving, but a modern wood carving.
The other party will find it very baffling, right?
Maybe you will suspect that they have ulterior motives?
Another point is that most of the money the other party paid to buy the wood carvings was used by Xiao Zhou to buy a car.
Having to spend half a million yuan at once made Mr. Zhou feel quite a bit stressed.
He shook his head.
No.
He believed in his son.
My son would never do such an extreme thing.
Lao Mu just misunderstood.
Yes, that's right, there's definitely something wrong with this.
After Mr. Zhou tried hard to convince himself, he took out his mobile phone and dialed his son's number.
